Hello, a while back I corresponded with someone on this Carothers line from
Cumberland Co., PA. (Since then I have had a computer crash and have lost
my correspondence records - for reasons beyond the crash but complicated by
the crash and changing email programs) Anyway.....
Andrew Carothers b. 1759 d. 1817
sp. Mary
Children: Samuel, John, Sarah, William, Lucetta, Mary, Andrew, Masey Ann,
and James Walker Carothers.
Now I have learned of 2 more daughters Lucetta and Polly who were killed in
1801.
I have been told that Mary (wife of Andrew) was a Patterson and that they
were married 29 Mar 1779. I need to know if indeed this is their marriage
date and if there is a record of this marriage and if Mary is a Patterson?
I have recently come into more information on this family and information
which indicates that Andrew's father John Carothers (sp. Sarah some think
nee Neely) was the son of Robert Carother d. 1771 who mentions son John and
daughter Janet Nailor in his will.
Can anyone shed light on this?
Thanks AmyAnn
